A new nose has been grown on a man's forehead in Fuzhou, China, according to Reuters.

The man, named Xiaolian, had neglected
an injury to his nose after a traffic accident in August 2012.
Doctors had no choice but to grow a new nose to replace the
damaged cartilage in the old.

According to Reuters, the nose was grown by placing a skin tissue expander onto Xiaolian's forehead,
cutting it into the shape of a nose and planting a cartilage
taken from his ribs. Doctors say the nose is in good shape
and the surgery to transplant it should take place soon.
